Info
titleFor Programs Rotating to Ochsner in January

As of right now, all House Officers rotating to Ochsner in January do need be PECOS enrolled.  While CMS has changed their deadline, our contract with Ochsner states that the rotating House Officers must be enrolled.  Until we are instructed otherwise from them, all House Officers will need to be enrolled before rotating at Ochsner in 2017.

Warning

Note:  While the enforcement for drug prescribers is being delayed until 2019, enforcement for prescribers of durable home-health equipment has already taken effect.  Any resident who needs the ability to prescribe durable home-health equipment to Medicare patients must be registered.
